Is IB completely down now and for more than 30 minutes!!!?

Quote from cmaxb:

Seems ok now.

Yeah after about two hours I am up, but slowly loading. I must find another broker by the end of the year. Unless it is an exchange problem or another 9.11, there is no excuse for completely losing two hours in a trading day. Especially without any compensation.
 
IB crew hard at work

IB is a professional trading service and I luckily cashed in before it crashed. I like to take my profits in cash and store them in the guest bedroom.

catoosa, try restoring to an earlier date. I had to go back much earlier to get it to work the other day.

Thanks, after three tries I got it to work. I replaced both tws.Mon.xml and tws.xml with tws.Fri.xml and TWS is working as it should.

I've had this problem for a few days now. Try going into your jts/d******* folder and delete the file tws.xml. And then copying maybe Friday's .xml file (tws.Fri.xml) as tws.xml. Then rerun your TWS. It should come up with at least the "File Page Ticker Order Tools..." bar up on top. I can't bring up symbols right now though. Good luck with that.

Don't forget to apply duct tape and bailing twine to your computer for the final fix. Sheesh, what you IB cultists will go through to keep the old gal running. :D

I've had luck copying over a previous .xml file and then when you run the TWS and everything comes up normally, make sure you do a Save Settings. The next time you run, it is my experience that it comes up okay. Quite an annoying bug though.
